They offer a clean, contemporary home away from home with two queen rooms that share a four-piece bath. Guests have access to the family room, living room, deck with BBQ and landscaped yard and plenty of on-site parking. A full breakfast is served offering a variety of foods and catering to individual nutritional and dietary needs.

R BnB is a four minute drive to the waterfront and many historical attractions and galleries. Museums, shops and restaurants are also nearby.

Russ and Susan have seen a need for accommodation in the Town of Amherstburg and as proud members of the Chamber of Commerce are excited to provide hospitality as well as information on local sites and events for visitors to our vibrant community. R BnB offers proximity to Boblo Island, King’s Navy yard, Fort Malden, sites for birders, Libro Centre and its amenities, as well as many hiking and biking paths and trails in and around the town; which by the way has been voted the safest community three years in a row, a record the citizens of Amherstburg are proud of.

In the short amount of time R BnB has opened its doors to guests, we have met some very interesting people which makes it very rewarding. Comments in our guest book suggest that we are on the right track of meeting the needs of our local and out of town guests. We look forward to serving the community for many years to come.

Dr. Story and Dr. Denomme Family Dentistry opened its doors only one year ago in the town of Amherstburg and continues to welcome new patients.

Both Dr. Storey and Dr. Donomme were born and raised in Windsor Essex County. Together they obtained their undergraduate degrees at the University of Windsor and their dental degrees at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry in 2009.

Both doctors have very similar philosophies and ideologies when it comes to practicing dentistry.

We understand that most patients have anxiety when it comes to the dentist and we pride ourselves on providing individualized treatment in a comfortable manner. We also place enormous value on patient education and the importance of the patients’ understanding of their treatment options. We stand behind all of our work and are constantly upgrading our skills and technology to deliver quality treatment of the highest degree. We know that one of the main concerns patients have are with radiation from x-rays. With digital sensors versus film we are able to decrease the level of radiation by 80-90 percent every time we take an x-ray. We are also able to take digital photographs with no radiation to help patients have a better understanding of their treatment needs.

Our office is offering free take-home whitening or sports guard with every new patient exam and cleaning.

D’Angelo Vineyards Estate Winery sits on a 50 acre vineyard on the 5th Concession in Amherstburg. Sal D’Angelo purchased the land back in 1981 and planted the first grape vines in 1983.

Do you know what type of vines were planted? Marechal Foch. Never heard of them? Well, that’s not surprising, we are the only vineyard in Essex County that grows this French hybrid. We also grow Vidal, Marquette, Cab Foch, Merlot and Baco Noir.

Our wines have won numerous awards and Sal was awarded the title of Grape King in 1999. This was the first time ever someone outside of the Niagara area was honoured.

Along with having wonderful, unique wines we also offer tours with the wine maker, Chris D’Angelo, and daily tastings. We hold luncheons and dinners that include a tour and tasting. We also offer wine for sale by the glass if you would just like to stop by and relax.

Give us a call and let us help you plan your next outing or special event.

We’d like to congratulate Chris Gibb in his new role as President of the Chamber of Commerce. Chris has been Vice President for the last two terms and is looking forward to filling the very big shoes of Ray Bezaire. Ray will be stepping aside as President due to the many demands of his time and the growing needs of his business.

Ray was the Chamber President for the past two terms and has served on the Board of Directors for a total of seven years; he spearheaded many successful events and was instrumental in partnering with the Town on several endeavors.

Chris will continue this business community spirit, along with the Board by providing excellent service to our many Chamber Members.

We’d also like to congratulate the new Treasurer, Neda Thomas-Jahn and welcome a new Director, Joseph Monteleone.
